Progressive Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) announced Wednesday that there are currently enough votes in the Senate to suspend the filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade and abortion rights if Democrats win control of the House and keep the Senate and White House.
“We will suspend the filibuster. We have the votes for that on Roe v. Wade,” Warren said on ABC’s “The View.”
She said if Democrats control the White House and both chambers of Congress in 2025, “the first vote Democrats will take in the Senate, the first substantive vote, will be to make Roe v. Wade law of the land again in America.”
No longer, apparently.
True. Because the Dems have let them by not fighting back.
Fixed that for you.
Fixed that one for you as well. Weird that you keep making mistakes that excuse the spineless inaction of the Dems 🤔
Finally being halfway honest about their fault in this. Let’s see if it lasts.
Nope, didn’t even last two sentences. They’re shackling themselves and blaming things like rules, procedures and rotating villains that are within their power to change or overcome.
I was wondering when that particular victim blaming strawman was gonna rear its ugly head…
For the record, I’ve never not voted or told others not to vote.
And the vast majority of Bernie voters voted for Hillary in the general. Unlike Hillary’s PUMA and others, who voted for McCain or not at all in much bigger percentages.
Another strawman.
Just because I realize that the Dems are doing an awful job doesn’t mean that I think they’re anywhere near as awful as the literal fascists on the other side of the aisle. I don’t.
Conversely, though, the other party being a literal fascist party doesn’t mean that we should demand less from Dems. On the contrary, this is when we MOST need them to fight tooth and nail and get things done!
I’m not the one doing that, apparatchik.
I understand just fine. You, on the other hand, reflexively believe everything the machine spits out, even though much of is demonstrably false.
People like you putting the bar at “just slightly better than Republicans” and demanding that everyone else do the same for decades is how the Dems have gotten away with just putting band aids on the limbs Republicans break and moving right to chase the mythical “undecided voter” even as they decry rising polarization.
Which in turn is how Republicans have gotten away with becoming a fascist party and still remaining competitive in a country that ascended to their current place in the world by fighting fascists in WWII.
Demand better. BE better.
Be better.
